I was really hoping you would jump in here :-) It's not a permissions issue. If I log in using OWA to my E2K3 mailbox, I can see all Public Folders and their contents. I am an owner of all. When I access this same mailbox from my workstation in the office using Outlook 2003, what I see is the Public Folder hierarchy on the E2K7 server minus the two folders which have been replicated. I accessed this same mailbox this morning from home over a Juniper VPN connection and using Outlook 2003 and was able to see the entire contents of the Public Folders including the two folders which have been replicated and the contents of all others. So .... when it works, I am obviously accessing the Public Folder database on the E2K3 server. When it doesn't work, I seem to be accessing the database on the E2K7 server, however, I'm stumped as to why the two replicated folders are missing. I ran the PFDAVADMIN anyway, but nothing has changed. CFee

This is generally most often true (for my customers) for those who have upgraded from Exchange 5.5. I haven't tried to nail down the exact reason, but I've presumed it had something to do with that migration. I would get PFDavAdmin and add "Domain Admins/Owner" at the topic of the tree and blow it down (assuming this meets your local security policies, of course). ________________________________ From: Carol Fee [c...@massbar.org] Sent: Wednesday, October 14, 2009 2:59 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 2007 Public Folder Issues I'm in the process of setting up Exchange Server 2007 SP1 Enterprise on Windows Server 2008 Standard. Our single forest/domain is 2003 Native, and we have one Server 2008 Domain Controller and three Server 2003 DC's. All DC's are GC etc. The single E2K7 server is Hub/CAS/Mailbox. I can send and receive email to a test mailbox on the E2K7 server both internally and from the Internet, through SMTP connector on the single E2K3 server. To begin the process of migrating the Public Folders, I replicated two ( each with sub folders ) from the E2K3 to the E2K7 server. Both the E2K3 and E2K7 mailbox databases point to the Public Folder database on the E2K3 server. I know the contents have replicated by using EMS and get-publicfolderstatistics.My first problem is I, personally can't see either of the two public folders which have been replicated using Outlook 2003. They don't even appear in the Public Folder list. This is true from multiple computers. This is true for my personal mailbox ( on E2K3 ) and my test mailbox on E2K7. I can see the folders using OWA to my E2K3 mailbox, but not to the E2K7 test mailbox. The only other Domain Admin is unable to see one of the two replicated folders using Outlook 2003 to his E2K3 mailbox. All other users are able to see the entire Public Folder tree. ________________________________ Carol Fee Network Administrator 617-338-0623 c...@massbar.org Massachusetts Bar Association 20 West Street Boston, MA 02111-1204 (617) 338-0500
